Brown Irrigation and Electrical, LLC Winner of AgriTrust of Georgia Quarterly Safety Initiative for the 2nd Quarter 2025

August 13, 2025 - Congratulations to Brown Irrigation and Electrical, LLC of Hawkinsville, Georgia for being named the 2nd Quarter Winner of the AgriTrust of Georgia Quarterly Safety Initiative.

Central pivots have revolutionized crop production, greatly increasing watering efficiency, and have become a saving grace for many farmers. The installation and servicing of those pivots is a growing industry that can present many challenges if not done correctly. Brown Irrigation and Electrical was founded in 2020, but in that short time have grown to be the #1 Reinke Manufacturing dealer in the Southeast Territory. Becoming the top dealer takes hard work and commitment from a full team.

Pivots, like every machine on the farm, have many potential hazards that everyone working on them need to recognize. Luckly, Jaye and Lesley Brown with Brown Irrigation and Electrical understand those hazards and take the extra precautions needed. Through proper training and the use of personnel protective equipment, they strive to always ensure their employees practice safety while on the job. Their dedication to safety is the reason they won AgriTrust of Georgia’s Quarterly Safety Initiative. For winning the Quarterly Safety Initiative, Brown Irrigation and Electrical has been presented a check for $2,000.00. With those winnings, they plan on reinvesting into their safety program by purchasing safety toe boots, updating first aid kits, and getting new hard hats.

AgriTrust of Georgia is a group self-insured workers' compensation fund that provides workers' compensation insurance coverage for the agricultural industry in the state of Georgia. The Quarterly Safety Initiative is designed to encourage all of the Fund members to participate in an active safety program.
